I could always yank out the hard drive and install something else, but since EFW community is built around the idea of repurposing old hardware to use as a router, I feel like a CPU stress test would be very valuable.

Lately our network has been experience erratic slowdowns. Rebooting the box always fixes the problem. I've tried fresh installs so I'm really only left with it's got to be a hardware problem.

Anyone know of an easy way to do a CPU/Memory stress test on a host machine without completely replacing the hard drive?

Unfortunately no stress tool is installed on the EFW operating system. However, you could stree CPU by a small shell script:
Code:
for i in $(seq $(nproc)); do yes > /dev/null & done
Don't forget to kill the yes process when done.
